I think you'd have fun on the main stage at First Ave in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I've played on it a few times and it was rad. I'd love to see you guys there!
I am 59 years old. I have been watching you and your band Cardinal Black for quite a while now. It is so exciting to see you and Cardinal Black reach stardom. It’s actually kind of weird to say, but really, I’m proud of you guys. I think Cardinal Black puts out exceptional music. It goes without saying, the guitar playing is phenomenal! I have told everybody I know about CardinalBlack. Your success is well deserved and I hope that one of these days I am able to see you in concert. Carry on!
I'm so happy for you and your band. I wish I had taken my talent to the next level all those years ago. We decided at the time to keep our day jobs. So aftrr all these years at 59 years old now I remain a happy blues/rock guitarist still jamming, mostly in bars or at parties. Good luck to you I really wish the best for you. So from Philadelphia pa, I say take care and keep rockin", Bob👍✌
That's massive! Really happy for you guys! It's a shame you're not playing support for Myles Kennedy in Vienna 😢 would have been an absolute monster concert in the Arena in Vienna...my favorite venue here!
I love to see you, that guy that explains and discusses as a pro, who influences and plays like he never has done anything else and who has such a great phrasing and dynamics, i love it to see you exited like a kid. So much authenticity, so unapologetically you. Thanks for all that. And, as others wrote: you deserve this, good luck and have a good time over there!
We all make our own history. You & the band are on a trajectory that’s well deserved. Perhaps one day Cardinal Black & Joe Bonamasa can share a stage here in Seattle. Best wishes and keep rockin with those magnificent riffs & solos !
You and the band deserve all this and more Chris, it's repayment for all your hard work and dedication to your craft, well done! Wish I could get to ANY of your shows, but sadly I can't, 😭. Good luck to you all. 👍❤️
Absolutely chuffed for you and the band. Played the Memo Live CD on my way from Newport to Barry this morning. I was at that show. Enjoy your time on tour.
Hey, congratulations Chris, a humble admirer from Perth Australia here, been watching your career with both interest and good wishes, you are a uniquely talented player.
Excited for you all ! You can treat yourself to a nice new Squier Sonic for these shows ! Truth is you’d still be stunning with one of those ! Humbucker on the bridge mate , all you need 😀🎸
Well done Chris and the guys, richly deserved! Saw your great show in Chester recently, how the hell you aren’t playing the main stage at Glastonbury is beyond me. You would storm it!😁
Veeery cool. But based on the thumbnail I thought it was the announcement of the long awaited Chris Buck Signature Revstar!!! Yamaha give this guy a deal!
Came to write exactly the same thing mate ! They better get their act together or another company is going to snap him up and we’ll never see a Yamaha sig
Please next lap around the US book a show in Tucson AZ. Good music scene and a much friendlier town than Phoenix. Would make a fantastic recap from the Welsh winter coming here and enjoying temperatures in the 20's C.
wish you were coming to Atlanta.. Was ready to buy a ticket. The drive to Nashville on a Monday just wont work for me. Maybe in the future. Wishing you all the continued and deserved success.
Everything you own, you've earned. There's only one David Gilmour, only one Slash - but if I could have the chops to play like someone, it would be Chris.
Slash is my favorite as well, and I can hear his influence in your playing with the absolutely crazy melodic lines you throw in your solos. Slash is my favorite, but you're the one I try most to emulate in that sense; you've taken it to your own level. You are your own amazing player at this point.
Stumbled onto you via the algorithm a while ago and, by coincidence, you are also a favourite of our son who lives in LA whom we are visiting in a week or two and, YES, we are going to the Troubadour gig! Really looking forward to it!
Remember us Subscribers when you get your private jet !! Seriously, it's awesome things are coming together for C. Black outside of the UK. Here's good thoughts for your success here in the U.S., and the future!!
I'm Welsh too and old but you have elevated my sound and style in a way that only David Gilmour and Rory Gallagher have in the past . Thanks for lifting my playing out of a rut❤
Cardinal Black deserves this! They are the total package IMO. Songs above all…and they know how to squeeze the most from these soulful tunes! Can’t wait to see y’all in Nashville!
Congratulations, Chris. Achieving one of your dreams is not something everybody can say they've done. Your's and the band's hard work and talent is really starting to pay off. Saw you in Guildford back in April '23, & looking forward to seeing you in Falmouth in November 😀
Absolutely brilliant news, it's taken you and the guys many years of shear hard graft, but finally you have made it. My husband is an avid guitar player who has taken many inspirations from your weekly vlogs and has continued to improve through them. Again, massive congratulations to all of you and the best of luck with the tour.👏👏👏👏
The old adage, "the bigger they are, the nicer they are," really does apply to Chris Buck. What a talented and humble man. Much luck to you and the band in everything you do.
I never heard that so called "old adage"! If anything it's the opposite, and since I toured myself for over a decade, the opposite is more often true in the music industry, and it's way well known in the world of business, making the few that are cool stand out more. "Don't let the dazzle of the exception, obfuscate the ugliness of the rule". - Me, just now.
@@Bob-of-Zoid I asked my wife which guitarists in the bands she saw were nice and she said she didn't know she only slept with the drummers but she'd heard a lot of them in the 70s were nice to children
I get goosebumps every time you launch into your epic bends ... I've been playing for 44 years and your playing is truly inspirational to me ! Straight path to feelings, no detours .. no holds barred ! Amazing ! Please keep doing what you're doing!
Selling out the troubadour is an amazing achievement. True reflection of your and the rest of the bands amazing talent. I am so pleased for you all. Looking forward to seeing in the UK soon.
Hi Chris, Congratulations on achieving one of your life's goals. I've been a subscriber to your UA-cam site since 2020, at least. I look forward to your videos every Friday. They have given me guitar lessons, gear reviews, musical history, and a little insight into being a professional musician.
U.S.A shows:
07/13 - Playing With Fire, Omaha
07/15 - Basement East, Nashville (Final Tix)
07/18 - Troubadour, L.A (Sold Out)

Bloody Hell! Sweet playing Chris! You earned your way there.
Please come to Boston !!
I think you'd have fun on the main stage at First Ave in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I've played on it a few times and it was rad. I'd love to see you guys there!
Come to Tulsa Oklahoma!!
Close to Omaha 👀

Stardom ?
@@donkeevney Well, maybe not exactly - yet, but it's a foot in the door and a great opportunity for them.
Stardom? we are here to see Cris Buck playing the guitar, that´s it.
@@AndrewBuck86the whole band are talented
@@Tetratwanger yes! You're right!
But, I don't like Cardinal Black.
I only listen the band for Chris.
I’m driving from Las Vegas to LA just to see you play at Troubadour on the 18th. Can’t wait for the show!
Yes I’ll see you at Troubadour 🤌🏻
I'm so happy for you and your band. I wish I had taken my talent to the next level all those years ago. We decided at the time to keep our day jobs.

Geat playing! Amazing tone and oh so tasty licks.
Congratulations 🎉 Chris and band. So happy for you! Come to Australia please!
That's massive! Really happy for you guys! It's a shame you're not playing support for Myles Kennedy in Vienna 😢 would have been an absolute monster concert in the Arena in Vienna...my favorite venue here!
Brilliant Chris, I hope the Troubadour boosts your profile in the US the way it has for so many others that you mentioned
Many Congratulations! I well remember you, Tom & Adam appearing at The Troubadour London.🎸🎤🥁
Your dream!!! Booom! You did it🎉🎉🎉🎉
Congratulations Chris and band!
I bought my tickets for the LA show back when you announced it! I'm excited to see you all there!!!
I love to see you, that guy that explains and discusses as a pro, who influences and plays like he never has done anything else and who has such a great phrasing and dynamics, i love it to see you exited like a kid. So much authenticity, so unapologetically you. Thanks for all that. And, as others wrote: you deserve this, good luck and have a good time over there!
I SOOOOO wanted to go to your show, but I'll be in Spain and Italy on vacation with my family. I'll definitely make a live show of yours somewhere.
We all make our own history. You & the band are on a trajectory that’s well deserved.
Perhaps one day Cardinal Black & Joe Bonamasa can share a stage here in Seattle.
Best wishes and keep rockin with those magnificent riffs & solos !

Congrats!
The live CD arrived this week - killer sound, kudos to the engineer - turn it up loud its like being there!
Hey, congratulations Chris, a humble admirer from Perth Australia here, been watching your career with both interest and good wishes, you are a uniquely talented player.
Congrats, fully deserved. I wish I would be there. Rock on!!!
So happy for you. And the people getting to see you. Got a Revstar, and love it. Go you guys! 🙃
Congrats Chris! Well deserved:)
Excited for you all ! You can treat yourself to a nice new Squier Sonic for these shows ! Truth is you’d still be stunning with one of those ! Humbucker on the bridge mate , all you need 😀🎸
Congrats
Well done Chris and the guys, richly deserved! Saw your great show in Chester recently, how the hell you aren’t playing the main stage at Glastonbury is beyond me. You would storm it!😁
Nice solo to start the vid. Love your note selections Chris. Your style is quickly becoming its own.
Really pleased for you and the rest of the band Chris! 👊🏻👍🏻🖤
Many, many congrats Chris to both you and the band.
This is great news, congratulations! Keep up the great work!
I went to Mutemath's album release show for Mutemath at the West Hollywood Troubadour and it's still one of the best shows I've ever seen.
Welcome and enjoy the US. Hopefully next time through you can stop in Chicago as there are some iconic venues and long time fans here!
Congratulations. You deserve it.
Well deserved!! Good luck and have fun! Please don’t forget to come to The Netherlands occasionally😊
AWESOME and CONGRATULATIONS
Congratulations Guys!
Veeery cool. But based on the thumbnail I thought it was the announcement of the long awaited Chris Buck Signature Revstar!!! Yamaha give this guy a deal!
Bro, those would sell out in seconds. Come on Yamaha
Came to write exactly the same thing mate ! They better get their act together or another company is going to snap him up and we’ll never see a Yamaha sig
Same thought😊
A very warm welcome to US mate.
Congratulations, all of you. Love your music, love your style, love your vids and I love your vibe.
Good luck boys! Welcome to the States! ✌🏻
Please next lap around the US book a show in Tucson AZ. Good music scene and a much friendlier town than Phoenix. Would make a fantastic recap from the Welsh winter coming here and enjoying temperatures in the 20's C.
👏👏👏 Outstanding.
Great video
Good on you pal :)
wish you were coming to Atlanta.. Was ready to buy a ticket. The drive to Nashville on a Monday just wont work for me. Maybe in the future. Wishing you all the continued and deserved success.
Come to MN and play First Ave!
If you can make it to Austin, or anywhere in Texas, I’ll be there.
Love you guys- I hope you make in up to the Bay Area in CA. Will be first to buy a ticket!
Great solo! Very tasty
Rock N Roll...
Your sliding bends remind me of Jeff Beck
Smash it Buckmaster. Smash it.
👏👏👏
I relly like your bass player!
You deserve it
Have a... G'OO'D... ONE... ! 🤠...
I am 70, started playing at 11. I thinks it’s absolutely disgusting that a 19 year old could play like that!
Not surprised your band is selling out. People are craving good live music versus the canned pop shows that are out their.
Everything you own, you've earned. There's only one David Gilmour, only one Slash - but if I could have the chops to play like someone, it would be Chris.
Me too. Well said
Remember to stay calm when the Yanks say “ I do love your English accent ! “ 🤣
So well deserved! Great to see some people getting the attention they deserve ❤
PS not quite the Troubadour but I’ll see you at Komedia in Bath later in the year!🤘
More people are aware of Cardinal Black over here in North America than you realize Chris. Hope you have a blast playing these amazing gigs!
I’m going to try to make the Nashville show, it’s a few hours away but we’ll worth it. I’m cheering you on!!
If anybody deserves this, it's Chris Buck and The Cardinal Black! Bravo!
Congrats on your upcoming US debut from north Texas! Cheers!!🍻🤠
Slash is my favorite as well, and I can hear his influence in your playing with the absolutely crazy melodic lines you throw in your solos. Slash is my favorite, but you're the one I try most to emulate in that sense; you've taken it to your own level. You are your own amazing player at this point.
Just wanted to say how happy I am for you and the band. What a wonderful milestone-thanks so much for sharing, and all the best for the show…

Well deserved, Chris. Have a great time. As a fellow Welshman, I'm proud of what you're doing.

Greatness doesn't like to be constrained. Awesome seeing this happen, wish I could attend.
Great news! Very happy for you! Are you guys coming to Canada? I live in Montreal and i’d love to see you live!
Congratulations to you & Cardinal Black. You deserve all the best of USA.
Lovely to feel how a dream comes true. Be yourself, play as yourselves and it will be wonderful.

Well deserved. It's a really good album. Have fun out there!
You’ve earned this and I’m so glad you get to live your dream.
Couldn’t be more happy for you. You deserve this and much, much more.
Congratulations! Well deserved!
Everytime I hear Half Way I'm reminded why I love this band.
Congrats, Mr. Buck! The way you play didn't come without a very high level of dedication - it sure make sense to me that you're selling out venues!! 👍
Congrats on the Troubador show in LA. They’ll love you.
Bravo and here is to all the success you deserve!
Congrats dude! driving up to Nashville for the show from Atlanta. Looking forward to it!
Great personal story Chris. Thank you for sharing and so pleased your dream of the US Troubadour is coming true. See you in Nashville!
You rock. Congratulations on your success. Well deserved. Looking forward to seeing Cardinal Black at the Troubadour,
Absolutely exquisite player in all respects: tone, control, technique and originality. It’s humbling and inspiring to watch you perform, Chris.
YOU !!! ... keeping it alive Chris, rock on.
